Hi! So I've literally never grown anything in my life, ever. But I want to start a healthier lifestyle and I feel that would help. I have a little area I could gate off. What supplies would I need? The ground is pretty hard. Would I have to till up the whole thing? Add more soil? What could I plant? Can you only do it certain times a year? Could I use chickens to eat the bugs instead of pesticides? I live in Texas, where it's very hot and rarely rains, if that matters. Thank you!

Does anyone know how to store fresh basil leaves? I started a herb garden outside and I have two sizable basil plants, however due to a number of circumstances I barely used any of the leaves. Can I dry them in a dehydrator? Can I freeze them? What can I do with them?

So a new neighbor in the house behind mine put a new fence up with my fence already there to begin with. Both are chain link fences. The grass that is getting in between it is getting out of hand. Not sure how to handle the situation. I have never even met the neighbors behind me.

I really want it to come back to life, is it possible or is it gone forever?

I just bought a house and the lawn is awful. Crabgrass, clovers, weeds. Not sure how much real grass is in there. My father in law gave me a TON of lawn treatment but not sure what is best to use.

I just bought a house and the lawn is awful. Crabgrass, clovers, weeds. Not sure how much real grass is in there. My father in law gave me a TON of lawn treatment but not sure what is best to use. He gave me weed and feed. Crab grass killer. Grub killer. So if were to use these. Essentially I would have no grass. What are the steps to fixing the lawn? Should I just weed and feed and let everything die and then reseed the lawn? I have no idea. Someone guide me please.

Best answer:
If stressed they will drop leaves, fruit and in extremis branches. It's the tree trying to survive. Lemon trees are more sensitive to the cold than other citrus, and need protecting from frosts. That might be what has happened.

Best answer:
Yes. Have always taken pride in the job I do on the lawn. I live in an area where almost everyone has gardeners doing the lawns, but I still like doing it myself. Now, as for painting, forget about it.

I have collected cantaloupe seeds from a locally grown cantaloupe that was exceptionally flavored and I want to keep the seeds to plant next spring in my own garden. Do they need to be refrigerated for any period of time - or - just let them dry out and package them until spring? - - - OR ?

You're using a gas mower just to keep the grass all short. I feel like lawns are great spaces to grow useful vegetation but most people choose not to do this.
I understand mowing the lawns to keep the grass short to keep out critters but I think people overdue it with mowing the lawn.
